Ram not exceeding 4000mhz
Here are some general tips for achieving maximum speeds:
Consider detaching infinity fabric to reach higher clock rates.
Increase the DRAM voltage significantly. DDR4 needs up to 1.5V; try lowering it to 1.45V and check if it starts properly. If stable, gradually reduce it to discover the optimal setting.
It helps to incrementally boost the memory clock speed—begin at 3400, then 3500, 3600, 3700, and so on. After stabilizing, the speed will remain consistent.

Increase the DRAM voltage significantly. DDR4 needs up to 1.5V, try lowering it to 1.45V and check if it starts properly. If stable, gradually reduce it to discover the lowest working level.
It helps to adjust the memory clock speed incrementally—start at 3400, then 3500, 3600, 3700, etc., restarting after each change. Once a steady clock is found, it remains consistent across reboots.
If the system enters a retrain loop and boots in default mode, perform a CMOS reset before attempting lower settings.
In most cases, reaching 4000 is uncommon. Aim for 3800 or 3900 at most; if you must disable IF, revert to 3600. Even with disconnected IF, the performance gain will be minimal and the slower timings will still be a drawback. Disconnecting IF further reduces benefits.
